Package: partman
I downloaded and burned a Sarge CD on 20040923. I booted expert26 mode.
The PC I was installing on had already been partitioned / used by Woody, then
pointed at the testing files and updated to testing.
I reformatted existing Linux partitions from ReiserFS to XFS successfully.
However, swap came up with the smiley face, and so I did nothing with it.
Committing the partitioning was successful other than swap which made it
through to 100% on its progress bar, then a failure message came up. I had
tried to allow it to prepare swap multiple times without success. I had to
physically delete the partition and recreate it as a swap partition.
I have reinstalled Sarge, smiley face for swap, and all was well. So I guess I
would have to drop back to Woody, then up to Sarge to recreate this, or does
someone know of an incompatibility in swap format off the top of your head and
you don't need me to do a recreate on this one?
Thanks!

In the resent verions of the installer partman always reformats the
swap spaces so I can now close this bug.

I suppose that if you retry this there will be no problems. I don't
know any recent incompatibilities in the swap format. Most likely there
was indeed some problem with your woody swap space. Maybe it was
truncated somehow (the partition was shortened in the past or if it
resides at the end of the disk it might be badly created from the
beginning).
